Our stay was very pleasant, breakfast staff and food was great, room was beautiful and cosy with amenities like tea tray. The farm setting was lovely. The only thing that bothered me was how we were received. I received a call during our day out asking what time we would arrive and I couldn’t help feeling like we had a curfew. I had a rough idea but as we were still wanting to make the most of our day, explore a bit longer and were looking to get dinner before heading to the farm we were still an hour away so was a bit surprised. Thankfully we managed to sort it out by checking in ourselves. Otherwise everything else was very good.

Amazing & unique

Amazing! Beautiful little barn house room. Lovely sized room with excellent facilities, shower room and bath, with private conservatory on the side. Lovely garden and court yard to sit out in the evening with a little drink, enjoy the animals onsite and overlooking the wonderful sites of longleat. Amazing breakfast and very welcoming staff, keen to make the stay perfect. Cute little pub walking distance away and a stones throw from longleat park. Easy parking onsite. Highly recommended, would definitely stay again!

Wonderful B&B, it felt like everyone was a friend you had known for ages and for me that is amazing, as i don't usually easily talk to people. But found it so easy here. Lovely breakfast and really comfy bed. Really convenient for Longleat.

Stopped off en-route from.N.Devon to London. Easy to find and lots of parking onsite. Checked in to our comfortable room, then a short walk to the local pub for dinner. After a restful night we enjoyed a cooked breakfast before continuing our journey. A great choice, and we will return.

Such a lovely place to stay, will definitely be booking again! The host and her team are all so lovely and nothing is too much trouble. The breakfast was incredible, very fresh. The beds and bedding very comfortable, like sleeping on a cloud! The house is homey and charming as are the animals on site, happy hens! Beautiful views too.
